An Indiana Editor Tells Why Democracy
Was Victorious In 1876 and 1884
Since its-under the circumstances
overwhelming defeat at the polls near
ly three years ago, the Republican
party has been trying to convince itself
and the outside word that that defeat
was the result of an accident, or acct
dents, and as consequence the merest
incidents, unimportant either in them
selves OF their relations. have been
marshaled together and paraded as the
causes of the party's disastrous defeat.
In this way Brother Burchard's un-
fortunate ALTERATION on the eve OF the
battle in New York has been made to
do duty as one of the principal causes
of Blaine's defeat. There are other in
cidents equally as trifiing that have
been used in the same way and for the
same purpose. The closeness of the
vote in certain localities like New York
and New Jersey makes this theory
seem plausible, and yet never was there
theory so unfounded.
The history of this country from it
beginning shows that the sentiment O
its people, when in normal condition
is favorable to the principles underly
ing the Democratic party. If accident
have played part in politics at all tn
Republicans have been the gamers b
them rather than the losers. The at
normal has always been the benefcia
ry of accidents, not the normal. Ha

lost power in 1867, ana mad it not been
for the abormal condition of affairs
following the suppression of the rebel
lion the Democratic party would have
been returned to power years before it
was. The talk about accidents defeat
ing the Republican party is the sheer
est nonsense. The people had been
ready to restore the Democrats to pow
er long before Blaine's defeat, and
were only prevented from doing it by
systematic misrepresentation on the
part of the Republicans. The war had
left the public mind in an excited, alb
normal condition that was easily af-
fected by accidental or incidental
causes. There is no doubt that at the
close of the war the Northern peo-
pie feared to trust the Democratic
party with power. It was but
natural fear considering the
abuse of that power that some OF the
party's Southern leaders, urged on by
State pride, had but just been guilty
of. That fear in the excited state Of
the public mind was augmented by the
monstrous falsehoods concocted by the
Republican press which invested in
cidents of Southern life, that now pass
unnoticed, into outrages horrible, and
new treasons The Democratic party
lived through it all, however, because
it was founded upon principles that
were undying, and lived down the
errors of its leaders. The people,
though they feared some influences in
it, never wholly lost confidence in the
Democratic party. The people were
inclined to trust it long before the Til.
den campaign and did trust it in some
States, but blunders by some of its
leaders exaggerated by the old fear
which was kept alive by Republican
falsehoods, succeeded in defeating i
in Presidential contests until 1876.

A PLAUSIBLE THEORY.

Tho Gorge of tho Mississippi Duo to q
Mighty Cataract Of Long Ago.
The Falls Of Niagara are familiar to
all, and came to exist through causes
natural and easy Of explanation, mas
much as the whole secret lies in the
character of the formations over which
the river flows, viz, crust made up
from sixty to one hundred feet OF COM
paratively hard limestone lying in a
nearly horizontal position. beneath
which is deep deposit of shales and
sandstone. Whenever the river, in;
wearing its channel back, reached the
point where this arrangement OF rocks
began, the hard limestone would
| naturally resist the erosive action OF
the waters. while the underlying shales
and limestones Offering less resist-,
ance, would be rapidly cut away. until
a vertical fall, such as is now seen,
would be the result, with a constant
recession going on, leaving below the
broad canyon. walled on either hand by
bluffs, the crests of which are preserved
by the limestone browning them.
These few reflections as to the falls
and gorge Of Niagara, fully demon-
strated by forces now in active OPP
GRAFTON, we shall apply to the Mis-
sissippi. Here also mighty water
way has been cut out by ero-
! sion, q fact which is universally con-
7 coded, but no definite explanation OF
the process has heretofore, rs far as
: we have been able to learn, been adj

a reading inventor by the name OF
Q Robert Bates to suggest theory which.
n Illuminated with what little investiga-
s ton we have been able TO give it,
Q promises to offer solution of the ques-
1t ton, or to assist in its solution. The
I. theory briefly is, that the erosion was

THE FORT OF SAND.

All day and all day
On the pearl-white shore,
Where the pillows dash
And the breakers roar,
We builded and builded,
With eager hand,
At edge Of the ocean
Our fort OF sand.
The white ships sailed by
To their distant land,
And the sea-gulls flew
Nv the curving strand;
We-heeding no passing
Plodded and planned,
While the wild spray sprinkled
Our fort Of sand.
Built turret and wall
And rampant complete;
Till the sun went down
On day too fleet.
And at night, the high tide,
With steel-cold hand,
Swept out-and forever
Our fort OF sand.
But that summer day,
And the happy light,
And one sweet child-face,
With its glances bright
They are lingering yet
BY ocean strand
Where we builded and builded
Our fort of sand.
